In response to the COVID-19 crisis, the Academy is stepping up to donate much-needed supplies to health care workers.

This week Academy scientists and the Membership Department scoured their labs and field supplies and gathered a range of much needed personal protective equipment to donate to St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children, in conjunction with Drexel University.
